Don't want you thinking I support pirates, I most certainly do not. I would never endorse stealing. I also agree that if you want to hack your console you should be banned from PSN. What I do not agree with is any company trying to retain ownership of equiptment you purchase, which is what this is about. Its about hacking your own hardware so you can do as you please with it. The moment you try to run hacked code on the PSN or play pirated software is the moment you start breaking the law. It does suck that these hacks are used for piracy but that does not mean that legal users should be punished. Sorry not trying to beat a dead horse, but too many people think that a EULA or ToS is legal and binding when many are not. |
now this i can agree with, don't worry i didn't think you supported piracy cause that would be me making an ass out of my self or assuming.
jailbreak being sold could open the doors for this to happen, nad thats the only point i was making to Rath. when you sell something for the purpose of hacking without pirating thats one thing but when the ability is in the product thats something else which was also my point.
also releasing something that can be hacked but the pub that makes the product doesn't want it to be is another topic altogether. i mean should they release the product and say we don't want you to hack so plz don't!
PS3 was open as i'm sure you know but when the first incident happend it was closed. i agree all shouldn't be punished but for Sony's own safety it has to be this way. well i think so anyway.
